But I will definitely add support for multiple monitors to the user settings.

Thank you! But it useless for me... [e digicons]:([/e] I need more detailed weather data like 10 days/night, hour-by-hour (up to 48 hours), weather maps, moon phases, etc... So, I'll try to explore the capabilities of MSN Weather . Their service seems pretty powerful and still free.
RIP WEATHER WIDGETS [e digicons]8O[/e] [e digicons]:([/e] [e digicons]:'([/e] [e digicons]X([/e] I think this is the end of the weather widgets era. You may check this link: wxdata.weather.com . So any widgets that uses xml feeds from weather.com ( DX , Rainmeter , etc...) will not work from this day. And we are unlikely to wait for a solution to this problem...

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="38" id="3759986"] All (if I recall correctly) of my widgets are using WU, as that is the script that Sviz used. [/quote] There is an easy way to check the widget in the DX List Objects (turn off the Internet earlier!!!). The widget is not editable if you will see any objects with " WU ..." in their names. But if you will see an object like " weather_image ", " weatherimage ", etc..
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="34" id="3759949"] I don't mean to whine, but the Silica weather has an issue where you have to set city every time you load it. It doesn't remember the city you set. [/quote] Jim, my goal was to fix the widget’s access to the weather forecast, and I did it. Nothing more. I don’t even know where and how this Silica stores location records... I can and I am ready to help. But I cannot do your work in your place. These are you

I uninstalled DesktopX 4.0. Then installed my old DesktopX 3.50. Works great. That was good news. And now the bad ones... I can’t fix your widget because it works through the WEATHER UNDERGROUND .

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="23" id="3759731"] I'd rather use one of my own weather widgets, but they crash on load. May I send you one of mine to fix, and I can take it from there to fix others? [/quote] Yes of course! You may send it. Or just give me a link to the gallery of your widgets, and I will download it myself. Today I already tried to download and check a few pieces, but they all work through Weather Underground. So I couldn’t find at least one work
Hi Jim, It seems to me that this is one of the first Functions created by Martin many years ago... This function requires an unambiguous spelling of City Name. That is, you must enter “New York, NY” to receive the correct data. Otherwise, if you just enter "New York", you will see 10 different places around the World... I don’t like this... Naturally, my previous advice was incorrect, because it implied a different method to receive the weather data. So your

[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="13" id="3759493"] I do use the unreleased 4.0 Pro. [/quote] Hi Jim, Where did you get this installer? Can you post more details? I've tried to install DesktopX_Pro_setup.exe (the file version is 9.0.2.0, SHA1 timestamp: 12 June 2011, 23:31:41) several years ago, but it was buggy...

[quote]My DX weather widgets stopped working. This has happened before in years past. I don't know of a solution.

Because this task requires your desire and some efforts. If there is neither one nor the other, the widgets will never work... [e digicons]:typo:[/e] So here is a solution:
